Gut microbiome modulates response to anti–PD-1 immunotherapy in melanoma patients

TL;DR: Examination of the oral and gut microbiome of melanoma patients undergoing anti-programmed cell death 1 protein (PD-1) immunotherapy suggested enhanced systemic and antitumor immunity in responding patients with a favorable gut microbiome as well as in germ-free mice receiving fecal transplants from responding patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

CTLA-4 Blockade with Ipilimumab: Long-term Follow-up of 177 Patients with Metastatic Melanoma

TL;DR: This report shows that ipilimumab can induce durable, potentially curative tumor regression in a small percentage of patients with metastatic melanoma and seems to have an increased CR rate, but this needs to be tested in a randomized trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD8+ Enriched “Young” Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes Can Mediate Regression of Metastatic Melanoma

TL;DR: This study shows that a rapid and simplified method can be used to reliably generate CD8+ enriched young TIL for administration as an individualized therapy for advanced melanoma, and may allow this potentially effective treatment to be applied at other institutions and to reach additional patients.
